Premium Framed Print : Skull, 3-D CT scan
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Skull, 3-D CT scan
Human skull, 3-D computed tomography (CT) scan. The orbits of the eyes are either side of the nasal cavity. The front of the skull contains large air spaces called sinuses. CT scanning is a diagnostic technique that uses X-rays passed through the body at different angles to build up an image

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a remarkable 3-D CT scan of a human skull. The intricate details of the skeletal structure are brought to life, revealing the complexity and beauty hidden beneath our skin. The image highlights the orbits of the eyes, positioned on either side of the nasal cavity, emphasizing their crucial role in vision. Additionally, it draws attention to the front of the skull which houses large air spaces known as sinuses. These sinuses play an important physiological function in regulating airflow and providing resonance for our voices. CT scanning is a groundbreaking diagnostic technique that utilizes X-rays passed through different angles within the body to construct detailed images like this one. It has revolutionized medicine by enabling healthcare professionals to visualize internal structures with unprecedented precision. As we gaze at this blue-hued reconstruction, we are reminded of both life and death. The skull symbolizes mortality while also serving as a testament to medical advancements aimed at preserving and improving human health. This print serves as a powerful reminder of how far we have come in understanding human anatomy and physiology. It represents not only scientific progress but also underscores the critical role played by radiography in modern healthcare practices.
